Development of Antigen-Specific Memory CD8+ T Cells Following Live-Attenuated Chimeric West Nile Virus Vaccination
7 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
ChimeriVax-WN02 is a novel live-attenuated West Nile virus (WNV) vaccine containing modified WNV premembrane (prM) and envelope (E) sequences inserted into the yellow fever 17D vaccine genome. We investigated the induction and evolution of CD8(+) T cell responses to a WNV envelope epitope, which is a dominant target in naturally infected HLA-A*02-positive individuals. WNV epitope-specific CD8(+) T cells were...
